Curly Christmas Quiz, 21 December 2023
What a fabulous evening we had on Thursday at the zoom Christmas Quiz hosted by Carol Johnstone, Aly Clayton & Heather Driscoll. It was great to see everyone joining in, including our international friends, and it certainly got everyone in the Christmas spirit…
There were six sections of questions including all things Christmas – General Knowledge, Songs, Food & Drink, Films & TV. A picture round where AI pictures of dogs were created by inputting their Breed Standard & everyone had to guess the breed; and a Curly specific round.
The prizes were Curly Club Shop Vouchers for first, second & third place. Our winner was Addriana, Ellen & Colin came second, and third was team – Jo, Brett, Wendy, Richard & Nigel.
Well done everyone!
